Ngc6337

Here's another from last weekend - NGC6337. This was also captured with the DSI II/Newt combination. 30x2min subs.

It's quite an unusual little PN with the donut shape and a number of small stars in the centre. This link reveals it looks a bit like a mini Helix nebula with the extended nebulosity I didn't manage to pick up.

Thanks for looking.
